Chinese Rig?

Fishie · 09-05-05, 07:37 AM

Have you guys tried this rig let. It is a dropshot worm with a carolina rig setup as the weight. It seems like it would be good. I imagin somebodies done it already.

I have tried most worm combinations. In fact I was using the wacky worm setup in the 60's and just did'nt know it.

Of course back then it was a number 8 eagle claw hook with a live crawler

It appears that any combo worm and weight will work at certain times because they are just a modifacation (sp) of the TR or CR.
The trick is to find out what those certain times are. That I am not an expert on. Most of my rigs are done to see what the fish want, and are created by accident

Yeah, but you have to snatch the pebble before I'd share that one

Drop-Shot Alternatives

"As with most techniques, the drop-shot is evolving as anglers are seeing its advantages, and experimenting with variations. One evolution is the use of a jig or weighted tube bait on the end of the leader, instead of the sinker. This allows you to cover two depths with the rig, and there抯 always a chance at a double!

Another option is multiple hooks on the line. The knot used with this variation should be changed - the Palomar knot is not designed to be pulled from the tag end. The knot I recommend for multi-hook rigs is the snell knot. When fish are stacked on structure, this can be a quick way to put a limit in the boat. (Check your local fishing regulations for the maximum number of hooks allowed in your area.)

Another variation that is gaining popularity is pitchin?and flippin?the drop-shot. This can be deadly when fish are suspended in grass, under docks, or in brush. Just use a jig (or other bait you prefer for flippin? in place of the weight. The other difference is the hook; standard worm hooks can be utilized, and the bait can be rigged weedless. Of course, due to the cover associated with flippin?and pitchin? it is best to increase your line size, also.

In all, the drop-shot is an easy and effective way to catch fish. It will undoubtedly become a staple technique in bass fishing circles, much like flippin?and finesse fishing have. Give it a try - put another weapon in your fishing arsenal!"-----------Terry Battisti

Any way, I'm not really crazy about these stuff, but it works.
